Pandan or screwpine leaves, also known as asian vanila is one of my favourite ingredients. They are very fragrant and taste devine. My girls and I crave pandan chiffon cake every now and then but with three kids I don't get to bake it as often as I would like to. This pandan muffin is a shortcut version. They are so easy to make, very moist and taste beautiful. They are also good for lunch box because of their "cool" green colour.
You can get the pandan paste from most asian grocer. Try to get Koepoe Koepoe brand from Indonesia which is very thick and has beautiful colour and aroma.

I saw pandan muffin on some other blog and I've been so interested to taste this muffin. I've never used pandan leaves before but these muffins must be really delicious!
Thank you Nami. It will taste even better if you use pandan leaves rather than the paste.
